  • a cognitive radio system uses the frequency band in a shared manner as a secondary system, use efficiency of the frequency band improves.
  • the secondary system uses the frequency band in a shared manner with the primary system, the secondary system tries not to affect existing services provided by the primary system.
  • the secondary system needs to use a frequency band that is not being used by the primary system, or needs to perform such communication that produces an interference amount equal to or smaller than an amount allowed by the primary system.
  • the secondary system needs to accurately identify a status of frequency band usage of the primary system before using the frequency band.
  • spectrum sensing As a specific method of detecting whether or not a signal of the primary system exists in a frequency band used by the primary system (frequency band that the secondary system intends to use), there is known spectrum sensing, which is means used by a secondary system radio apparatus for detecting a radio signal in its surrounding.
  • the spectrum sensing is broadly divided into the following methods. That is, a method using energy detection, in which a determination is made based on the amount of received signal power obtained through time averaging (energy detection), and a method in which a feature value contained in a transmitted signal of the primary system is used for detection (feature detection).
  • IEEE 802.22 is one example of the radio communication system in which detection of the primary system is performed through the above-mentioned spectrum sensing and the secondary system uses a frequency band that is not being used by the primary system.
  • IEEE 802.22 the standardization of wireless regional area network (WRAN) systems using the frequency band allocated to the U.S. TV broadcast has been discussed.
  • IEEE 802.22 in a case where the received power of a signal compliant with Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC), which is a standard for the U.S. TV broadcast, is equal to or larger than -116 dBm, a misdetection rate and a false alarm rate are each defined to be set to 0.1 or smaller.
